Trivia
- Yuen Long, by winning the FA Cup, prevented Seiko from capturing all the 6 major trophies (First Division, Senior Shield, Viceroy Cup, Chairman's Cup, Wooden Shield and FA Cup) in the season.
- Despite losing the cup, Seiko kept the record of losing no matches in the 90-minute time among all local competitions in the season.
gollark: ... IRC has that too?
gollark: At least IRC is actually an open protocol with multiple implementations and servers. Discord... isn't.
gollark: Automatically.
gollark: Even if Discord somehow managed to block selfbots, which I don't think they can do in practice, it would be possible to do something ridiculous like... run Discord in one of those headless browser things, and read out messages and whatnot.
gollark: I think trying to restrict this information from spreading around is... about as effective as DRM, really, for the reason that you can kind of control who gets information but not how it's used or spread out after they do.
